The Healthcare Facilities MSc is the only programme currently available in the UK and internationally that leads to a degree specialised in healthcare built environments, either as a healthcare architect or healthcare planner. This is a very multifaceted area of the built environment and there are very few professionals that have academic qualifications at this level able to address the complexity involved.
The aim of the MSc is to generate an integrated perspective of all those components that constitute systemic, sustainable, and successful healthcare buildings. These components include: a strong emphasis on the value of real estate and place-making; an understanding of all elements necessary to enable significant environments for healthcare, including anything from hospital to homes for elderly and vulnerable people; a holistic perspective on Healthcare Facilities as a social provision.
The normal minimum qualifications are a 2:1 Bachelor’s degree from a UK university or an overseas qualification of an equivalent standard. As the programme is designed to enhance the knowledge base of practitioners in healthcare it is desirable for candidates to have some knowledge, demonstrable competence, and a skill set related to healthcare practice, policy, A second acceptable qualification is a second-class Bachelor’s degree or lower, with substantial knowledge, demonstrable competence, and a skill set related to management, policy, investment, or design practice in healthcare investment, design, or management, in addition to their academic qualification.
